10/10/26 - Girlz Rebel #57 ATG with something Wood - Simply Leaves with woodgrain style DSP

Happy Saturday and Taiwanese Birthday for Double Ten (10/10)! Today at Girlz Rebels we are making Anything Goes with something wood and I decided to go with the Woodgrain DSP that you see across my card. This DSP is from the current September - December 2026 Stampin' Up Catalog called Sunflower Field. I added a sentiment from the stamp set and added a thread to tie the leaves together. I really like how this card turns out. I hope you enjoyed this and be sure to join us at the challenge.

10/5/26 - Make My Monday #288 Fall / A Place to Start October 2026 ATG (Spotlight) - Fern & Floral

Happy Monday and welcome to October! Today is my son's birthday and I am sharing a card at Make My Monday (Fall) and A Place To start (ATG - Spotlight). I went with a big Fern image in black and used a negative 1" circle template and sponge it with Daring Duckling, but sadly, I didn't use enough color, so the spotlight circle is very faint, but you get the idea. Then whatever is within that yellow circle, I colored the ferns with Watercolor Pencils and used Blender Pen to smooth out the lines. I paired it with a background DSP with fall colors. I hope you enjoyed this card and be sure to join us at the challenges.

10/4/26 - Dragonfly Challenge October 2026 (Sentiment) - Round About Messages

Happy Sunday! Today at Dragonfly Challenge we are making cards with sentiment. I decided to make a Barn Door Fun Fold card - card base is 11" x 4 1/4" and score at half mark. Then you cut from 2 1/8" to the score line. The DSP is cut down to 5 1/4" x 4" and added a circle sentiment. This stamp set is really fun, with lots of sentiments that's around the circle so you can simply use the punch with it. Hope you enjoyed this card and be sure to join us at the challenge.
